Merry Christmas, everyone!

This week is our last regular season game of the season at Sydney, but hopefully not our last game. The playoff race is complicated, but Coach Weber gave us the simple formula. If we win, we take the division at 11-5 because we win the tiebreaker over Sydney. Both of us will be 11-5 and 5-1 in the division with a split against each other. The difference would be that we would win the third tiebreaker where our record would be 9-3 against common opponents and theirs would be 8-4.

The last time we met, they beat us 25-15 in our place in a game that wasn't close. We were mostly able to keep SK out of the end zone, but their kicker had six FGs. This time we need to play better in containment. Their QB Vonnegut turns the ball over a lot, so we need to be there to take advantage of every mistake he makes.

Statistically, SK has not stood out in anything. They are 24^th in rushing and 7^th in passing to rank 11^th in the WSAFL in offense. They are also 11^th in scoring. On defense, they are tied for 13^th in rushing and 7^th in passing to rank 8^th in total defense. They are 4^th in points allowed. So SK is definitely a defensive team. Hopefully we can turn that around.
